Last night actually saw an increase in North American signals here for a time. I noticed 1400 CBG was audible before local midnight, which surprised me. I was expecting a lot more because of this, but TA signals then dipped down shortly after this. Even so, 1540 KXEL Waterloo IA was there after 0300. The unidentified oldies station was still present on 1490, though not as good as on recent mornings. A Spanish station appeared at 0254 on 1350, probably Buenos Aires. So it was still all to play for, but perhaps not as good as recent mornings.

Signals from the far east had also dipped down the previous evening.

I will take a rest from MW DXing while the Perseids are upon us. There has been a lot of meteor scatter on FM lately.
